Use the proper URL argument when transforming youtu.be URLs to their
youtube.com equivalents.
Thanks to Tuhgy on the fediverse for reporting this!

In Crystal, handling multi-byte sequences in UTF-8 requires understanding that
slicing by bytes can lead to invalid sequences if the slicing isn't aligned
with character boundaries. In this case, attempting to slice a string by bytes
can cut through multi-byte UTF-8 sequences, leading to invalid sequences.
To avoid this, strings should be sliced based on characters rather than bytes.

This PR makes it possible to display badges in the search results for third

This PR adds the error message to the "search on Github" link located on
the crash page, so that the search bar is already filled and the issues
filtered when the user opens said link.
As seen with #4584 and other critical problems, duplicate issues end up
unnecessarily flooding the issue reports. While this change won't entirely
stop this behavior, this will help the user to easily identify if the error
they have received has been reported yet and discourage them from creating
a duplicate (hopefully...).

This PR adds a configuration option to control the preloading of video data on
page load with the HTML5 'preload'[1] attribute on the `<video>` element.
The option is enabled by default, meaning that the `preload` attribute's value
will be 'auto'. If users want to prevent preloading of video data, they
can disable the option, which will set the attribute value to 'none'.

The automatic instance redirection implemented in #1940 fetches a new list of
instances each time someone queries the /redirect endpoint. This is extremely
inefficient...
This PR optimizes all that into a background job that only fetches a single
list every 30 minutes. This should performance quite a bit.

Before this PR, the comment/description content was not HTML escaped when 'parse_description()'
was called with a JSON object lacking the "commandRuns" entry.
Closes issue 4727
This PR:
* gets thumbnail and channel name from the initial request
* gets videos, shorts and streams via autogenerated channel playlists
Test Url: /channel/UCbfnHqxXs_K3kvaH-WlNlig
Closes issue 3513
The /api/v1/videos endpoint does not proxy the formatStreams URLs when
'local=true' is passed, whereas the adaptiveFormats URLs are correctly proxied.
The Web UI does proxy when clicking "Download" with 'fmt=18' for example, so
this is probably an oversight. This PR aims to fix that.

This PR adds two new config option, to pass a PO token (config 'po_token') and
a visitor ID (config 'visitor_data') to Youtube. These two strings are required
to play videos using the WEB client.
Warning: These strings gives much more identifiable information to Google!
If the po_token setting is filled in, then the WEB client is used. If not, the
Android client is used. TvHtml5ScreenEmbed will still be used as a fallback.
Script for generating po_token and visitor_data:

Helps with issue 4734
This PR adds support for inv_sig_helper, which offloads the player fetching,
function extraction and signature parsing, which in turn allows to use the
web client to watch videos.
When the new config option "signature_server" is not set, the logic for the
external signature server is not enabled and invidious behaves like before.
This PR also updates the crystal overrides because the stdlib changed quite
a while ago (See issue 11049 at crystal-lang/crystal) and those were required
to properly use TCP/unix sockets.
Closes issue 4649
Note: Does not add rel="noreferrer noopener" to:
* links in channel description
* links in video descriptions
* links in video comments
